Hit the front but was no match late, sixth 5.4L at Cranbourne Bm70 2540m. Settled on the pace and had chance to win but settled for second 0.3L at Cranbourne Bm66 2580m. Proven he can can stay this trip. Sure to make it a true staying test.

Poised to bounce at the 400m however didn't have a lot left to give 7L at Ladbrokes Geelong Bm70 over 2400m Soft 6. Always well back and nice effort to finish off for fifth 4.6L at Southside Cranbourne Bm70 over 2540m.

Never a winning chance after slow beginning and did well to steal sixth 3.5L at Caulfield Bm80 over 2400m. No match for rivals and never progressed into the race from midfield 1.3L at Caulfield Bm84 over 2400m Soft 6. Nicely placed by trainer here.

Never headed once found the lead and shot clear for a dominant win 3.3L at Swan Hill Bm56 over 2400m. Had a big task ahead settling well back in the running 28.7L at Warrnambool Bm67-Hwgt over 3400m Soft 7.

Out-gunned over the final stages after getting back midfield 1L at Cranbourne Bm66 2580m. Led, tried hard but was ultimately outclassed into third placing 5.3L at Pakenham Bm78 2500m Soft 5. Big chance if he can handle the quick back-up.

Liked the way it got home into sixth after being in a tough position 3.5L at Pakenham Bm62 2000m Soft 6. Big task to run on from worse than midfield but hit the line hard 1L at Cranbourne Bm66 2580m. Building nicely for this.

Positioned on the speed and raced clear to win impressively 2.3L at Kyneton Bm56 over 2845m. Found a nice spot behind the speed but did little in the run home 12.1L at Warrnambool Bm67-Hwgt over 3400m Soft 7.

Yielded into sixth place after going forward and sitting behind the leaders 3.9L at Hamilton 0 - 56 over 2200m Soft 6. Too far back to be competitive, struggling into sixth 11.2L at Kyneton Bm56 over 2845m.

Fought hard to hold fourth position with the leaders but was no match 6.2L at Kyneton Bm56 over 2845m. Stalked the speed, under the whip to make ground struggling into fifth 9.4L at Warrnambool Bm67-Hwgt over 3400m Soft 7.
